The most total right answers by one team will win. So, although I admit this doesn't look good for the sharks, if all three of their members submit and get most of them right and 1-2 of the MagSix don't submit and the other 4 don't do that great, they could be right in it. So everyone give it your best shot!

I will be posting the challenge later today/tonight!

Just a subtle reminder that as with all posts on these forums, you should probably keep your cool. It is just a discussion and everyone be careful what you say.

http://www.karateforums.com/forums/viewtopic.php?topic=2433&forum=8&2 Since there already is one topic on this, I'll close this one and this can be picked up over there. Welcome to the site.

Jack, We are not. Ad, No one said it did. Belts are in good fun. I believe that if you are just going to spoil the fun of others, the phrase "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all" applies. It is just a novelty item and doesn't really mean anything. Some people enjoy them and that is a great. That is what they are there for, fun.

Some people take the belts as fun, some do not think much of him. Either way, don't ruin the people's fun. The belts really aren't a big deal, but they are a novelty and reward people for posting a lot on our forums. Easy on the caps.

The teams are now: The Shark Tribe: Karateka ramcalgary ZR440 The Magnificent Six Tribe: KSN Doug kicker *Joanne Siddall* jamesdasher SaiFightsMS YODA We are going to have at least ONE more Team Challenge, I will be posting it within a couple of days.

Ok, Voting is closed. Here are the votes: VOTE 1: spinninggumby "gumby can not stand that little guy and his horse" VOTE 2: Karateka "My vote is against Karateka." VOTE 3: ramcalgary "my vote goes for ramcalgary..." VOTE 4: spinninggumby "Because I never liked his show. LOL" VOTE 5: spinninggumby "A great asset to the forum but one of the biggest threats on the other team." So, spinninggumby is now off of KarateForums.com Survivor.

Nope. I don't think so. This thread was not for discussion in regard to that though. So since it is now off topic, I guess we'll close it.

I have moved both topics to the most appropriate forum. And cross posting is not allowed, so I am closing this one. Anyone with stretching tips, please visit: http://www.karateforums.com/forums/viewtopic.php?topic=2410&forum=19

Hey KarateMom, Thanks for telling me. That post was made on June 7, 2001. Here is the new link: http://www.karateforums.com/linktous.php

Not at all Rush. phpBB is the forum software that we use. Hacks are a term for modifications made to improve the script. They are not illegal (a common thing with the word hacks). For instance, the thing to click on the smilies to put them in posts is a hack.

Lets just remember to respect our fellow poster. Comments like "rrriiiigghhtt" are slighty rude and really not neccessary in this discussion. Everyone has an opinion, no need to disrespect each others opinions. Now, lets get back on topic.

I wonder how this missed all of the Senseis and me and James. Well, we are only human. This thread is closed and there will be some PMs going out as well, so check your boxes everyone.

We have many UK members. Tobias has recommended it to many people.

And EVERYONE should vote, even if you didn't compete in this challenge for some reason.

Going to close this thread, a reminder that you should all act with civility. Thank you. _________________ Patrick O'Keefe KarateForums.com - Administrator/Grandmaster iFroggy Design - Affordable Web Design and Development [ This Message was edited by: Patrick on 2002-04-05 19:38 ]

That site was created for the purpose of humor.

Ok. This challenge is over. The Winners are Mag Six! Here is the order of correct entries: SaiFightsMS (Mag Six) jamesdasher (Mag Six) ZR440 (Sharks) KSN Doug (Mag Six) So, first team to have 3 correct wins. Also, Kicker I see your entry was in my box. I am sure it was right just a little late to be included. Anyway, Mag Six wins their THIRD immunity. That means that someone from the Shark Tribe must be voted off. Please PM me with your vote and rationale. The Shark Tribe: Karateka ramcalgary ZR440 spinninggumby The Magnificent Six Tribe: KSN Doug kicker *Joanne Siddall* jamesdasher SaiFightsMS YODA The deadline for votes will be April 7 at 10 PM CST.

Yep. Exactly.

Ok, ready everyone? Team Challenge Three: Animal Location Scavenger Hunt KickChick helped out with this one. DIRECTIONS: In which part of the world do some animals live? Look at the list of animals below. Some will be familiar to you, and others will not. Use the Internet to find where these animals live. To help you, we've provided you with the URL address for a Web site where you will find the information you need. You might need to wander around the Web site a bit to find the page that has information about each animal's natural habitat. Write the name of the country or continent where you find each animal. ANIMAL ZOO NAME/WEB SITE URL WHERE IN THE WORLD? white-faced saki Pittsburgh Zoo http://zoo.pgh.pa.us/wildlife.html King penguin Pittsburgh Zoo http://zoo.pgh.pa.us/wildlife.html silver langur Cincinnati Zoo http://www.cincyzoo.org/index.htm Gila monster Cincinnati Zoo http://www.cincyzoo.org/index.htm wallaroo The Oakland Zoo http://www.oaklandzoo.org bison The Oakland Zoo http://www.oaklandzoo.org meerkat Birmingham Zoo http://www.birminghamzoo.com muntjac Birmingham Zoo http://www.birminghamzoo.com black rhinoceros Lincoln Park Zoo http://www.lpzoo.com/menu.html green tree python Lincoln Park Zoo http://www.lpzoo.com/menu.html Now because this is a TEAM challenge, I have decided that we will go with the team that has the first THREE people submit a successful scavenger hunt is the winning team. You will PM me your answers/guesses and I will send you back the ones that are wrong. You then must make them correct. This still benefits the Mag Six because they have MORE people and thus more of an opportunity, but there is also a good chance that the Sharks could take it. This challenge begins - NOW.

Basically, I pick the winner here. But, I am very heavily involved in the phpBB Community and I know what the best phpBBs are. I know quite a lot about it and my unbiased opinion is that this is one of them.

That would be because I typed it wrong. Fixed now.

Well, better get warmed up. Posting the challenge later today.

Yes, I do. As I said above, the phpBBHacks.com Featured phpBB is only given to the best phpBBs. And this is a prime example of a great phpBB.
